ArchivedOSAS revisitedFirst of all I did not read your entire poste I stopped here: The reason I continually post the same argument is that the Bible is the last word on any doctrinal discrepency and Jesus said that some will fall away as did Paul who added "from the faith". Paul also writes that apostasy will precede the Lord's return. The definition of apostasy is a departure from God's truth by those who once believed and practiced God's truth. So far all you have done is try to show that Jesus and Paul did not know God's will or to be blunt you are trying to show that both Jesus and Paul lied. Now since we are saved by grace through faith, receive the Holy Spirit by faith, are justified and sanctified by faith the only logical and Biblical response to OSAS is that it is a false doctrine since OSAS appeals to the result of initial faith to establish a false doctrine. Believe what you will (Omega) but have you considered the consequences to those who accept eternal security and do not "endure to the end" and live as overcomers? I have had long conversations with OSAS advocates who in order to maintain this doctrine have said that once saved a man can become actively gay and still be saved and this in spite of Revelation 21:7 and other Scriptures. Now you may not personally believe what other OSAS advocates teach however the tragedy is there are those who believe and teach that eternal security means that after you are saved based on those Scritpures you appeal to can become carnal and practice sin with no eternal consequences, which is a false teaching that is in truth a doctrine of demons. Conditional security is the only concept that does not deny God's revealed truth. And in spite of your rhetoric you have not proven otherwise. |
